The CIO Congress took place for the 20th time in Bad Loipersdorf from 9 to 11 October. It was a packed event: 300 participants, 50 workshops and the expertise of over 80 speakers on this year’s theme of “Shaping the digital future together”. “The CIO Congress remains one of the most important industry get-togethers for IT decision-makers,” says Sales Manager Omid Shaker, who talked about electronic signatures and the vision of a paperless office on behalf of XiTrust. Shaker: “The participants want to know: How is digitalisation changing the way we work now and in the future? All industries are equally affected by this.”

Signing contracts even faster
In fact, the time advantage when signing remotely can become the decisive factor. Shaker: “Companies are competing for young, highly qualified specialists, so digitalisation in HR can be decisive for a successful HR policy.” A legally valid electronic signature, which can be provided within minutes, ultimately relieves companies of the time-consuming postal route – which is no longer an option for many young skilled workers. “With electronic signatures, for example in MOXIS, it takes no time at all,” says Shaker. “In Loipersdorf, it was simply fun to see how digitalisation has raised awareness for more efficient work structures!” The dialogue at C-Level continues: the next congress in Loipersdorf – Security & Risk Management – will take place on 22/23 March 2023.
